tells what was the unlucky sporting

For once the sectional press OF the
North is willing to treat Hon. jeff.
Davi. with fairness and give him
the credit Of sincerity in his utter
ances relative to the unitication Of
the North and the South. The Phil
adelphia News, commenting on Mr..
Davis Meridian speech, says:
''rne strength Of mind, the mental
courage required to enable JEFF. Davis
to say to Eis people, "the truth we
fought for shall not encourage you
ever to fight again. demands cordial
recognition. For the first time in
nearly thirty years, the North can
well afford to put aside resentment
and to join. the South in praise Of
JEFF. Davis
The South is proud to have the
North join with her in honoring her
heroes, but whether sister section
desires to do so or not, the South
claims the right equally with the
North to pay homage to those of her
0 who deserve to be hOnOred. Mr..
Davis is one of her heroes whom the
South delights to honor, and she
will do it whether the North joins
her or not.-Natchez Democrat.

SENSATION IN couar.
A Judge offended by am fnsinuafien
ar Uufafrness.

fBy telegraph 20 ibc Dispai'n.i
CHICAGO. March 3.-The great litiga-
ton involving the Illinois Central Rail
read CompaDy's claim to the harbor
front of Chicago came before Judge
Gresham yesterday, and he was about to
give il his attention, when n somewhat
sensational incident occurred. II has
been well known that desire existed
in many quarters since Judge Gresham's
speedy determination of the Wabash
railway cases that he should try the
lake front question. The railroad com
pspy has been filing in along the lake
shore bordering the tracks, and creating
q strip of solid land to which the road
lays claim. Acting for the state AttOr
ney-General, local lawyers appeared
before Judge Gresham 10 press the in
junction proceedings begun some time
ago, but dropped on promise, since
broken, that the company would cease
operations. When the new restraining
order was asked of Judge Gresham
yesterday John n. Jewett arose in be-
half of the railroad company and OPP
posed the motion, saying the Illinois
Central wished the case heard by Judge
Blodgett. and not by Judge Gresham.
Judge Gresham's face flushed holly,
and he interrupted Mr. Jewett to say
that he would have nothing to do with
the case. Nothing could be more
offensive to Judge than to be told in
so many words that parties feared he
would not try their case fairly. He had
no respect for a court that would allow
itself to be influenced by personal con-
siderations or fear to do its duty. He
knew nothing whatever about the case,
nor what interests we're involved, but
he could see no reason why he should
be objected to as the judge to try it.
Under the circumstances he would not
touch it, but he wished it distinctly
understood in the future that any case
which came before him in the regular
way he would not shrink from hearing,
despite any insinuations of counsel.
Mr.. Jewett did not reply. The result
will probably be that neither Judge
Gresham nor Blodgett, but Justice
Harlan, will hear the case.

Special telegram to The Dispatch.

lSpecial Telegram 10 tue Dspatcn.I
NRw YORK, March 3.--Wall street
to-day was agitated by report that
Robert Garrett would tonight open his
new house in Baltimore and entertain
at dinner large number of prominent
railroad-men from New York and Phila-
delphia. President Roberts, of the
Pennsylvania road, it was said, would
be a guest. A. j. Drexel and George
W. Childs would be there, and Austin
Corbin, president of the Reading road,
Alfred Sully, G.. S. Brice, and others,
representing the Richmond Terminal,
were invited. A number of New York
men, including President Sloan, of the
Lackawanna road, left early in the
day, il was said, for Baltimore.
The meaning of the dinner was eager
" discussed. Some said it would result
in the settlement of the telegraph war,
and this advanced the prices of Western
Union stock. Others saw in the dinner
something far more significant than
even a possible telegraph settlement. 1t
foreshadowed, they said, combination
of roads extending from New York to
New Orleans, including the Baltimore
and Ohio, Reading, and Richmond
Terminal. Mr.. Brice, before leaving
for Baltimore, said that the dinner
would be n purely social affair."" but
the street unanimously voted that lot
of railroad-men would not travel from
New York and Philadelphia to Bslti-
more simply for dinner.
